on inspection, it seemed ok, but,
   i was feeling just a little bit hinky about it.

when in doubt, draw a truth table.
so, i did.

several times.

i needed both monkey pages to be sure, but i got

   [ p + q ] and [ not_p + r ] implies [ q + r ].

six of the eight cases are fine.
but, in the two cases where

   p = q = not_r ,

   i can't make it work.

can someone point out my error ?

if i am not in error,
   does this mean that superman --is-- evil or malevolent ?

is the spider_lady evil or malevolent ?  or
   is it just her hench_men ?

questions, questions, questions,
   on the minds of concerned young people to_day.



is that the madison that is a stone's_throw from here ?
just wondering.



i recommend highly the two post_war serials,
   particularly if you are a ten_year_old or
   if you can play one at the matinee.

many southern_pacific 4-6-2 locomotives and
   many views of the chatsworth station,
   back when there was fruit in the valley.
